Default Got the bike outta storage!

Took the bike out for a spin this weekend. Long crappy winter in Northern Ind! Glad to see the snow gone and the sun out. Felt great to ride again!

Ran the motor for about 5 minutes in the garage today. Still a lot of salt out there with no rain lately. Man it seemed LOUD.

Got the bike out for the first time yesterday too. Finally the sun was out here, got a small ride in and it felt great. Raining today and ready for the nice weather to stay for a while.

Could have gotten out today if the @#$&^ weatherman had said it was going to get to 50. As it is, she's behind a bunch of crap in the garage (still plenty of winter here in MN).
